3 Top A/W 2016-2017 Trends | Runway to Real-way

You might find the haute couture & avant-garde designs walking down the runway difficult to pick apart, maybe even a bit intimidating (or dare we say... entirely bizarre).

But without the brilliant minds of designers like Vivienne Westwood, Gareth Pugh & Alexander McQueen (may he rest in peace), how would we keep pushing boundaries & continue to appreciate the artistic visionaries in fashion?

Ready-to-wear designs are more relatable, easier for the average person to translate, whereas avant-garde, takes a little more imagination to comprehend.

We decided to take on a runway to real-way challenge to train our minds to think out of the box & find inspiration in the avant-garde. We chose our 3 favorite trends from the season.

▲ TREND: Ballet

▲ TREND: Patent

▲ TREND: Velvet
